Sonar Viewer Problem on new Mac & Bootcamp 7 years 8 months ago #10785

I am new to this forum and apologize if my question has been addressed previously. I have been running Sonar Viewer on a 2013 MacBook Air with Parallels software and Windows 7 and have had no problem. Recently purchased a 2018 MacBook Pro, installed Windows 10 Pro with Bootcamp ,and installed Sonar Viewer. I am able to open the software, and my sonar log files ( SL2) appear to load properly. Once loaded, I get a black or blue screen with the blue loading symbol . Spoke to tech support at Reefmaster and was told it may be due to the Radeon graphics card in my new Mac. I did make sure that all software updates , including graphics card drivers were installed.. Anyone else encounter this or have a workaround?
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Found out that the problem is from the discrete Radeon graphics cards that is used in the new Macs. To solve this problem if your'e running Windows 10 through Bootcamp,
type " reefmaster" in the search window which brings up a new panel. Choose APPS-Control Panel-All Control Panel Items-Device Manager-Display Adapters-Radeon Pro (double click to open)-Driver Tab-Disable Device. Works.
